THE AI ART STORY – an excerpt of my creations – By Ivor Novello The assertion that art created by artificial intelligence (AI) lacks the emotional depth of human-created art is a common perspective and part of ongoing debates about the role of AI in creative endeavours. Here are some points to consider: Emotional Depth in Human Art:  Human-created art often reflects the artist’s emotions, experiences, and personal interpretation of the world. The emotional depth in traditional art is tied to the artist’s subjective perspective, cultural background, and unique sensibilities. AI as a Tool:  AI, including machine learning algorithms used in art generation, lacks personal experiences, emotions, and consciousness. It operates based on patterns and data provided during training. As of now, AI is a tool that processes information and generates outputs but does not yet possess subjective experiences or emotions. Expression vs. Replication: Some argue that AI-generated art may replicate patterns and ...

New trends in making AI useable for non-tech people – By Aditya Abeysinghe   UI drag and drop to build apps Typical Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications require coding different sections, manually testing and merging sections. However, with many businesses changing business processes from traditional to an AI-based method, coding each section of an app is a time-consuming task which requires prior expertise with coding. Therefore, businesses are using new methods to construct and test apps using user interface (UI) elements. With these kind of methods UI elements are used to construct an app by drag-and-drop elements. Usually, for large scale apps some level of coding is required to enhance functions and integrate with other sections. For small scale apps the entire app can usually be created without coding. Automated tests Testing is one method of detecting issues in apps. Testing could be carried out during system design, system development, or ...

Rise of image generation methods in AI – By Aditya Abeysinghe Image-to-image translation Image-to-image translation is the method of transforming an image from one domain to another domain. Image-to-image translation is usually done using deep learning models such as generative adversarial networks. Models used for this method are trained with image pairs, i.e. the input and the output image. Some complex models may even use more advanced methods. Image translation is used in several applications such as for converting color model of an image such as between RGB (Red, Green, Blue) and other color schemes, for converting from one form to other forms such as an image of a summer background to an image of a winter background etc. Image creation using text Text-to-image generation is another method that is used for creating an image. In this method, a diffusion Artificial Intelligence (AI) model translates text to images. The model ...

Intelligent AI agents: Programs with intelligence? By Aditya Abeysinghe From early days of automatic processing, manual input was used by machines and internal process flows need to be supplied. Machines were less capable to learn on processing methods and on why some decisions were made during their actions. With the rise of intelligence in agents/elements used in machines for processing, machines are capable to act automatically on some or all tasks. Intelligent agents could lessen human input required by machines and process faster when used with other processes.  What are intelligent agents? Intelligent agents are physical or virtual matter which can perceive their surroundings and act autonomously. These matter may function based on the input of a set of sensors such as heat, fire or pressure or based on an intelligent method which could function without manual input. Some agents may use a defined list of decisions to decide which ...
